RuneScape Patch Week: PvM and Skilling

By Michel Z2017-10-25

This week is a standard patch week with several really interesting and useful things for both PvM'ers and skillers of RuneScape. So let’s check it out.

 

 

It's the age-old conundrum that's been wracking minds throughout Gielinor: would you rather battle one queen black dragon-sized duck or 100 duck-sized queen black dragons?

If you choose the latter one (and subsequently guessed that this was all one big metaphor) then you're in luck: it's patch week. Here are some of the highlights:
